I don't care because I'm not a 16 year old obsessed with random people

I'm so glad I had A-10's and F-14's on my walls as a kid or I might have grown up to be tasteless mustang driving baby back bitch like this hoe.

Yeah, the tow hook and fake carbon fiber are pretty ricey, but they can at least be removed if you're not interested in them.

Kek. don't believe that for a second. \

Civic Si's are generally considered to be "factory rice" by /o/, but as long as you like the car, you shouldn't care about what other people think. That being said, I actually own one of these 8th gen Si's (pic related) and mine's been fairly good to me. I think his price is a little low if his car is in "great condition" as he says.

As far as learning a manual on this car, I think you should be alright. However, these cars have transmissions that are hit or miss. You should have a friend or parent that knows how to drive manual test drive this car to see how it shifts. 2nd and 3rd gear synchros have been known to have problems as well as the CMC. Oh, and the clutch engages really close to the floor, like 1 inch of pedal travel is all you need to hook up - so it can be easy to stall if you're not paying attention.

Looks like he also has the 76mm catback from Skunk2 (he lists it as 75mm which..they don't make that size), so I'd take a close look for any leaks or shitheaps underneath the car. I have the same exhaust, it is very very loud so if you don't like that much noise, you should check and see if he still has the stock piping. That and with the CAI, he really should have hondata flashpro installed and have a base tune at the very least on the car, otherwise I'm guessing it's not running as smoothly as he states. Just the fact that the car has been modified should make you pretty leery when checking this car out.

Other than that, it's a great car. They're reliable, maintenance is relatively cheap for a modern car, and they are a blast to drive. Not that fast if you're looking to drag, though.

That subie probably isn't bad either, but I think it's gonna be a little slower to 60 mph if that type of thing is what you're looking for. Although, it's probably a safer bet than a Civic Si that has already been riced.

Flux capacitors are hella expensive tho

>tfw no car where i sit back with my legs extended and relax while the car drives itself.

How do we mod a car to do that?

It bugs me too that normies want AWD for the couple of snow months a year, and yet don't even change to winter tires.

I don't need to go fast and have only used AWD twice in deep snow. But it helps in the snow and I would rather have the option then not and have to call a row truck

Why not have it if you have the option of having it?

>inb4 should have bought an EVO

The speed limit is 65. You don't need to go 130 when you are an adult

Allowing them the same rights and privileges as men isn't wrong.

Why they can be so bad at shit though, I do not know. Just the other day one nearly crashed into me because she needed to go from the right lane to the left NOW and she expected me to slam on my brakes to let her in. Her car looked like it recently rear ended someone pretty bad as well.

called up the guy and he said its never been in an accident and its basically brand new. gona check over everything tomorrow and test everything to make sure it works. guys think its a good buy? i do myself but i dont know that much about cars, its AUD btw

what do you guys think? any experience with fords and this model in particular? gona pay cash and hoping that will sweeten the deal also

>>14773306
newish car with low kilometers, try to talk down the price a bit, go over the entire body and look for scratches or bumps. Check every fluid, ask how often replaced and with what. Check mechanic records to see exactly what has been done and how often.

Nigga literally anything

Find something with a decent tranny and look for an adapter plate so you dont have to deal with driveshaft and differential shit

Maybe FC rx7 if you can find a cheap T-II tranny?

>>14772655
Foxbody if you want to dominate the 1/4.

But what about revscene.net bro

Is that still a thing?

At least you guys have a proper race track there we are still stuck with crap ass mission raceway on the mainland.

>>14772461
Because generally twins owners are butthurt and can't stop defending their meme car, meanwhile Miata owners have accepted their hairdresser fag destiny and moved on.

Can't get a 20-year-old toyobaru for $1500.

I like them both but /o/ is autistic for cars theyre never going to own

Please bump

>take care

Read the owners manual and see what items are due. Hand wash your car and learn how to care for the paint.

>make it look good

May be a tint if you live in a hot state otherwise you might get a million replies ranging from good mods to pure rice shit.

Do you need a sedan? If not I would consider a used Porsche, 370z, or BMW. Sounds like this car meets all your criteria, but you could get a 2014-15 Camry for waaayy cheaper and still get 270hp and reliability.
